Disney: Quality over Quantity

A plot published in The Wall Street Journal showing the number of movies released by Disney and Disney’s operating profit margin between 2006 and 2015.

I read an interesting article in the 10 June 2015 edition of The Wall Street Journal. The graphic below concisely illustrates the focused strategy being adopted by Disney: a steady decline in the number of movies released per year accompanied by a steady ascent in operating margin.

Quality over quantity for enhanced overall profit. Makes sense to me.

Bar plots showing how number of movies released by Disney per year has declined from 2006 to 2015, while operating profits have increased.
